A bar offering more than 70 different types of beer and cider is soon to open in Frome.

Brewed Boy is opening on Cork Street on Saturday and will offer locals a wide variety of tipples.

George White, 21, is in charge of the bottle bar. It will be his first business venture.

This is the second bottle bar to open in a matter of weeks. Palmer Street Bottle opened on Saturday, April 22.

Bottle bars typically focus on craft beers. They can vary from place to place with some also incorporating wines and spirits. Refills are also offered in many establishments.

As well as bottles, George will have eight drinks on tap at any given time. These will rotate frequently.

He said: “I started out working in the cider industry for a local firm. After a couple of years there I saw the lease was up on this place and I decided to start my own adventure.”

George, who is originally from London, signed the lease for the Frome bar in August. He has been working on getting it ready for nine months.

He said: “I’ve tried to upcycle where possible. The bar is made out of old keg barrels and the floor boards are made from discarded wood from apartments in Bristol.

“A chap came all the way from Belfast to create this incredible mural on one of the walls. He actually got in touch with me so it was fantastic surprise.”

George, who now lives in Upton Noble, hopes to have around 36 bottles and 20 to 25 cans on offer at any given time.

He said: “These will be sourced from all over the country. We will of course have local beers and ciders but I don’t want to restrict myself.

“I’ve got beers from Newcastle, Leeds and Manchester to sell. One of the starting tap beers will be from a start-up in Leeds called Legitimate Industries. They are doing some really crazy things up there and their beer is fantastic.”

Other eccentric beers George will have on offer include a Crème Brulee stout from Pope’s Yard and an eight per cent double IPA.

He said: “Drinks from the taps can be served in both pint glasses and stemmed glasses. They kegs will rotate as soon as they’re drunk. Once one keg is finished a different on will be put in its place.”

George will be running the place all by himself to begin with. He hopes to eventually get his beer garden up and running and offer a refill service.

The bar at 4 Cork Street will be open Tuesday to Sunday from 12pm to 9pm.

It will officially open on Saturday, April 29 at 12pm.
